Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (NASDAQ: CLNE) today announced fueling has begun at its Amarillo, Texas, and Oklahoma City, Okla., America’s Natural Gas Highway stations to serve UPS’ growing heavy-duty LNG truck fleet. Additional truck fueling agreements were also announced for fleets fueling across Clean Energy’s nationwide network from Los Angeles, Calif., to Jacksonville, Fla. Clean Energy and its customers were also awarded grant funds by the state of Pennsylvania for LCNG infrastructure development and heavy-duty natural gas vehicle conversions. Clean Energy also began production and sales of its Redeem biomethane fuel at its Memphis, Tenn., production facility.

UPS has deployed six heavy-duty LNG trucks which are fueling at Clean Energy’s newly-opened Oklahoma City, Okla., station; an additional four trucks are expected to begin fueling at this station within weeks. These tractors are forecasted to consume approximately 300,000 DGEs of LNG per year which represents a greenhouse gas reduction of approximately 518 metric tons per year.

Clean Energy’s Amarillo, Texas, station has also opened and is fueling 10 LNG trucks under its previously-announced bulk fueling agreement with UPS.

“The initial twenty LNG dual-fuel conversions have proven to be a solid business move which is why we’re more than doubling the size of this fleet to continue to provide superior service to our customers at a competitive cost,” said John Warren, president of EJ Madison. “I believe the future of long-haul trucking is here, it’s cleaner and it’s promising.”
